Drowning Not Waving

A lot of people have asked me how I'm going and how life is with four kids.

Well I won't lie, life with four is crazy and by the time I have tucked the last boy into bed all I want to do is crawl into bed myself so my blog (and my husband) are being extremely ignored.

I'm sure once William gets into a routine I'll be back in the blogging swing but for now it's very hit and miss and I'm missing it, and I miss having time to just breathe.

Michael has just started a new job and for a whole month he's away from Monday to Friday which leaves me with four kids all by myself. it's been pretty exhausting and to add to it my James turns five on Wednesday so I have cakes to make presents to wrap and a party to organise. A mum from school was shocked when I gave her her invite she asked me if I was a sucker for punishment throwing a party when I'm not sleeping through the night (or during the day for that matter). I figure if he was an only child I would still be giving him a party so just because there are four of them doesn't mean they should miss out, right?

Sucker for punishment? I hate that comment!! Blessed beyond measure? I like that better.. It's great having four kids close together in age and throwing birthday parties into the mix is not such a big deal... Eventually.. Hope it goes well ;)
